Cosplay summary

Cosplay summary: Akari is one of the characters that I was very fond of having made, because the beginning of the year 2022 was one of the worst months of my life and playing Pokemon Arceus was one of the only things I was able to play and that helped me a lot in the difficult times that I went through!💓⁣

As the game takes place in the "Feudal Edo" era, I decided to select various fabrics with textures to make it as "peasant" as possible to match the atmosphere of everything being "handmade". In the main fabrics navy blue and white, I used Linen slub and in the leggings I used Suplex Polyamide and Mesh Scuba Suede in the scarf that luckily was left over from Impa and all the gradient of both the skirt and the scarf, were painted with a lot of patience by hand with fabric paint using a makeup brush!

Although I wanted the straw detailing to look like real life using rice straw material, I preferred to keep the game style with the bigfoot look, so I had to choose the color rather than the material itself, which made me decide to use synthetic leather because it is very resistant and that gave a very nice finish to the back bag too, not to mention the color that fits like a glove!
